Planning application

Aloha Woodwater Lane Exeter EX2 5AL

Granted Exeter 24/0425/TPO Works to Protected Trees (TPO)

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

x1 Mature Hornbeam - Prune secondary & sub lateral branch growth only away from fibre optic cable running from pole to property to achieve an adequate clearance from the line. Remove all cut material from site & return to a Devon Tree Services depot for recycling, leaving the area safe, clean & tidy. Justification: The proposed works are to prevent damage to the overhead fibre optic cable running through the upper crown area. All of the proposed work recommendations are remedial works only & will not affect the overall amenity value of the tree. Maximum final cut dimensions will not exceed 50mm in diameter. The proposed works will also benefit the tree, preventing the overhead cable rubbing & damaging the upper crown/branches.

    19 Falkland Close Exeter EX4 5EZ

    Oak tree on no mans land embankment which over looks garden of 18 Falkland Close, Exeter, EX4 5EZ. It has a large branch overhanging our garden. Tree surgeon Mitchell Tree Surgery has visited site and advised it needs to be removed. He says it is a large overhanging heavy limb which could cause considerable damage. Last year a large branch from a neighbouring oak next to It came down in a storm and caused damage. Our neighbours in number 18 and ourselves are concerned about this particular branch we wish to report to be removed. The tree itself has grown to 60 foot plus range and we all feel our houses are at risk. Sketch plan attached
